ESC 2021 | RIPCORD-2: Routine FFR Evaluation of All Epicardial Vessels During Angiography
The predecessor of this research— RIPCORD , published in 2014—showed that using fractional flow reserve (FFR) changes the treatment strategy in about 25% of patients. That marked the rise ...

ESC 2021 | ISAR-REACT 5: Prasugrel Superior to Ticagrelor in ACS across Kidney Function Spectrum
When we have to choose between two potent P2Y12 receptor inhibitors for a patient undergoing ACS with a planned invasive strategy, kidney function should not interfere in this decision. ...

ESC 2021 | ENVISAGE-TAVI AF: Surprise with Endoxaban in TAVR and Atrial Fibrillation
The enthusiasm for direct oral anticoagulants after transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVR) is waning. At least, when it combines with atrial fibrillation. The ENVISAGE-TAVI AF has ...
